Willing to pay and not wanting to support certain monetization models are two different things.
That's like someone calling someone who buys games but refuses to spend money on microtransactions cheap.
What monitization models? Sync offers multiple options, including subscription or a one time payment, and a one time payment for the ad free option specifically. What other monitization model would you prefer exactly?
When I first took a look it was only ads with a subscription model to remove it. Later got a $20 removal, but I don't like that it uses stuff like admob for personalized ads over just generic ads.
As for what type of monetization I prefer would be only a paid app without any ad integration at all that needs to be disabled. Or Apollo method of one single app without ads that pushes users towards the paid tier by having the free experience be very limited with one account sign in restrictions, no submissions, filter limits, etc.
Anyways, I uninstalled and moved on to other apps. It wasn't something that I found vital to use.
